WEEKLY CROP SUMMARY.
Drought and Cold Winds Cause Some In.
jury to Growing Grain.

CHICAGO, April l0.-The following is the
weekly crop summary of the Farmers Re-
view of this city: The complaints of
drought now come FROM all paris of the
winter wheat belt and are especially
numerous in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kan
sas and Missouri. In nearly every county
OF Illinois the reports that ground is dry
and, together with prevalence Of cold winds,
has retarded the growth and has caused
some injury to growing grain. In John
son, Wayne and White Counties the grain
is looking poorly. In Champaign, Clay,
Clinton, Crawford, Efingham and Gal
latin Counties the crop is described
ss in a far condition, while in
Brown, Fult. n, Green, Hardin, Han ilton,
Hancock, kankakee, Madison, Pulaski,
Stephens and Wabash Counties, despite
the need of rain, the prospects are still ex-
cellent. In Knox and Montgomery Coun-
ties ofIndiana the crop shows injury from
drought and cold wind. In Carroll, Clark,
Clay, Crawford, Elkhart. Fountain, Glib
son, Jay, Lagrange, Monroe, Morgan and
Vermillion Counties the prospects are still
regarded as favorable. In Ashtabula, Della
wheat fields show injury, but in Coshoc
ton, Crawford, Darke, Hooking, Huron,
Jackson, Lucas, Montgomery and Sandus-
ky the outlook is favorable for nearly an
average crop. In Ellis and Lyon of
Kansas considerable grain has been
powed under, having been winter killed.
The crop is reported as looking badly in
Ellsworth, Jewell and Pawnee Counties,
but is still in fair condition in Anderson,
Butler, Cherokee, Cowley, Crawford, JEFF
ferson, Mcpherson, Miami and Washington
Counties. The winter wheat in the south
ern tier OF counties of Michigan continues
to look poorly. The reports from Missouri,
while desiring the need of rain, are nearly
all of a favorable tenor. Spring seeding
has commenced in Illinois, Iowa aud
Nebraska, but not under favorable CO ndi-
tons, owing to the dry weather.
The fruit prospects in Illinois, Indiana
and Missouri are poor, peaches especially
having been injured, and will be short
crop. In Ohio and Wisconsin the fruit
prospects are considered good.

few Tumors had any appreciable affect. 1t being

was the strength and activity in reading, over
one-third of the entire business OF the day be-

element accompanying the dealings in it, the
circulation OF the rumor that at the meeting in
Philadelphia to-day all opposition was to be

vanees were not maintained in the early deal
ings and almost the entire market yielded
fractional amounts. These losses, however,
were afterward generally recovered, but toward
noon hesviness again became apparent, except
in Reading and Jersey Central. There was a
larger volume of business in the afternoon, but
the general market fluttuating within narrow

ITS SEVERITY INCREASING.
An Immense Area of Texas Now Suffering
From Drought.

An Immense Area of Texas Now Suffering
From Drought.
GALVESTON, Tex, April 10.-The past week
has been one of expectancy and disappoint-
ment to the people of Texas, no rains of
any consequence having fallen through
out the immense area now suffering from
drought. Dispatches and letters to the
Galveston News, the San Antonio Ex-
press and other papers of the State con-
tinue to detail the widespread and threat
ening character of the drought the severity
of which has percepGbly increased since
the last report. The drought now extends
from the lar western grazing lands across
the State for distance OF 500 miles into the
pine regions bordering on Louisiana, but
decreases in severity as 1t approaches
the pineries, from which section COM
plants are of recent date. The general
rains, which usually set ia at the full of
the moon, are wanting, and the cool, dry
winds of the past fortnight continue to pre-
vail, except in the district Immediately
west and southwest of San Antonio, en-
bracing Medina, Bandera, Uvalde, Frio and
Atascosa Counties, where moderate rains
fell yesterday, but not enough, say dis
patches from that vicinity. This is one of
the grazing sections of the State where
stock was dying Between San Antonio
and The coast embracing such fertile coun-
ties as Guadalupe. Gonzales, Layaca, Col
orado, Caldwell, Bastrop and a dozen
others, the drought has assumed serious
aspect. putting embargo upon all agri
cultural development, especially cotton,
the chief product OF this section. One cor
respondent describes the roadways through
out this belt as covered to the depth of sew
eral inches with dast. The fields are bar
rem, even of wees, while strings of cattle,
almost too poor to stand up, are travel
ing constantly in search Of grass and
water. In Central Texas, embrac-
ing about thirty counties surround
ding Waco, Corsicana and Burnet, the sit
uation is scarcely less promising, all re-
ports agreeing that nothing but very early
and plentiful rains Will avert serious dam
age or failure of crops. In Northern and
Northwestern Texas the drought is not as
severely felt as in the other sections, but the
complaints are increasing daily. A slight
sprinkle of rain fell during the week in
Mitchell County, along the line of the
Texas and Pacific Railroad. but no report
of rainfall in the great Panhandle dis
tTict has yet been received.
One result of the drought is a notable
scarcity of early vegetables at the princi-
pal points. Anxiety over the situation is
becoming greater every day. The whole.
sale houses of this city are calling their
drummers off the road, as the country mer-
chants refuse to buy pending the uncer-
tainty of the crop outlook.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH
Produce Markets,

CHICAGO April 1.-THE feeling was unset
tied in wheat to-day and prices ruled lower.
California advices reported rain in that State,
but the crop news from Ohio, Missouri and KAN
sas was unfavorabe. The visible supply was
a great surprise. Operators had calculated upon
fair decrease and were not prepared for an in
crease, which aggregated $4,000 bu. The clear
iDgs from the seaboard were light for Saturday,
ageregating 5000 bu. The market opened at
about Saturdays closing prices, with May at

followed by a rally Of &c, but toward the close
of the afternoon board values again declined
and the market closed at about inside figures.
Corn wss moderately active and weak early in
the session, but gradually became frmer and
closed a shade higher than on Saturday.
The increase of 1,SS0,OOO bu. in the
visible supply was the cause OF the
early weakness, but with larger clearings and
fair shipping inquiry values improved. The

steady, closing without any material changes

MAIDEN AND MILKMAN.
A Young Lady Runs AWAY Lacteal
Dispenser Mixed Up in the Affair.


Dispenser Mixed Up in the Affair.
KANSAS CITY, April l0.-Last Monday
considerable of sensation was created in
Leavenworth by the report that Miss Net
tie, the nineteen-year-old daughter of As
sistant Postmaster AloDZo Pinkston, be-
longing to one of the best families in the
West, had run away from home. Later it
was reported that a young, good-looking
milkman, who delivered the fluid at the
Pinkston mansion, had something 10 do
with the matter. 1t was subseq uently
learned that the girl had come to
this city. but not in company with the
young man, and Humane officer Fulton
was set to work on the case,
He traced the young lady to family
on Forest avenue, where she was found
working as domestic. In answer to Ques-
tons she said that her father was strict, al
most to the verge of eccentricity, hardly
allowing her to sit upon the porch OF their
house, and roundly lecturing her for talk
ing to the young milkman. She stood il
as long as she could and then ran away,
but the young man had never been with
her. She said also that he bad not in the
least acted improperly toward her and had
nothing to do with her escapade. Miss
Pinkston is related to many of the most
noted families in Kansas, and is a fine
looking young woman. Her mother, at
one time noted beauty in Leavenworth,
has been insane for some years.

ARRIVAL OF CAPTAIN sAMUELs.
His Opinion as to the Defeat OF the Yacht
Dauntless.


NEW YORK, April S-Captain Samuels.
Of the schooner yacht Dauntless, defeated
by theCorOnet in the race across tue AT
lantic, arrived here on the steamship Adri
attic to-day. He sailed from QaeenstO wn
on Wednesday of last week. Fhe inter
est in Captain Samuels' arrival has been
great since it was reported in this country
that ne and his employer, Caldwell u.
Colt, bad fallen out. Captain Samueis
said, with regard to the reported trouble:
The entire story was a complete fabrlca-
ton. Ny relations with Mr.. Colt were of
the pleasantest nature throughout the
entire trip, and nothing occurred TO mar
the friendly feerlDg that existed between
us. In fact, | never made a trip where
everything was so agreeable and pleasant
as this one was, and when Mr.. Colt and I
parted, We did so the best of friends. Ny
Only reason for leaving him was that had
fulfilled the engagement l entered into
with the owner of the Dauntless, and
there was no reason for my remain
ing aboard any longer. The trip across
Was the worst that / ever experienced in
an Of my travels, and / have sailed
around good bit. The sailors were not
dry moment from the time that we lie {
New YORK until after We dropped anchor
in Cork Harbor."
When asked his opinion of the cause of
the DsGntless' defeat, Captain Samuels
replied hat the Coronet was much the
better boat, and the Dauntless was fairly
outsaiIed. -
The Coronet, he continued, SIS mag
nihcent craft, and l knew it would be 6
hard race before we started. My idea in
letting the Coronet take the lead was to
prevent every one from being discouraged
before the yachts got out of sight, as they
would have been had L taken the lead. /

the Coronet was nearly twenty four hours
ahead Of u.s."
